If the Internet said it... it must be true?

Both the PT62, and a PT67, use a p-trim wheel, the difference is the inducer size; how can a turbo with a smaller diameter inducer, from the same family, be more capable than a turbo with a larger inducer?

The situation in the video you posted seems to infer the car was tested with the PT67, then it was swapped for a PT62, received considerable additional tuning, then made the same power as before, but had quicker spool times, due to the smaller turbo. If he added in a bunch of timing to make up for the smaller turbo, it doesn't make the smaller turbo more capable, perhaps just a better fit for his evo.

instead of reinventing the wheel, here's a decent explanation...

The 6262 has already proven itself to make a bit more power AND sooner (so just as capable and faster spooling).
Capable of way over 700whp.

a pretty good choice for a very nice single kit or wicked power twin!! :D

The 6265 would be like a 6776 with a smaller compressor, and a 6262 is even smaller than a 6265.....
the pt67 is a 6776 (p-trim).

the only reason its making more power on the evo is displacement...FWIW, i think this is the only car that its proven to be the turbo making more power.

the evo 9 has the advantage of being able to have a nicer mani, and a take more PSI than the nsx motor....
most of the #'s seen for the 6262 are 18psi or greater.

the great thing about the pt67 is that it makes very good low boost power and spools pretty evenly. It really is a great turbo for the nsx.
 
the 62/62 makes that power on the EVO because the efficiency range of the turbo, its great for a modded EVO but it wouldnt do the same on a NSX. I think the PT67 does that for the NSX.

Anyone running stock headers on ther DIY custom kits? Pics if any Im thinking of doing my own kit with a PT62
 
Warren, Stock or Aftermarket?....lol

Aftermarket replacements for stock, that is, a header that would fit on an NA car, using the same exhaust, etc.

The power of changing the exhaust manifolds is the greater flexibility doing so gives you, with regard to turbo placement. If you create shorter exhaust manifolds, which feed into a y-pipe, you can easily create a layout that offers an efficient gravity return for your turbo's oil supply, instead of requiring the installation of a scavenger pump and secondary oil reservoir.
